TARIFF NEWS / THOUGHTS

There is a lot of concern over the state of international manufacturing due to the tariffs. While we can not control what happens in the world [except by voting, please vote], we do have processes implemented here that help make this unprecedented era easier on our supporters :D!

what I can do:

While we can not predict what is going to happen, some things we have been doing are within our control to help minimize the burdens while still being accommodating .

this includes: Doing mostly preorders with physical samples in hand already so that reordering is a much quicker process and eliminates most of the risks of things not coming out correctly since a physical sample is ready.

Rest assured, regardless of what happens [125% tariff, etc], any pending preorders are going to be sent as is. No action is needed on y'alls part ^^! We will not burden our supporters with any extra charges for items already presold.

---

some possible notes for future [ If the 125% tariffs are enforced]

-potential delays in manufacturing [ time wise]

-potential increase in product costs for future drops

-The $15 patreon tier may be removed in the next 1-4 months . It had been grandfathered for the past 6 months, but if we continue, we will make some changes to it, aka removing the sticker/discount code from the tier possibly. With the increased shipping costs and now potential 125% increase in tariff costs, this tier is no longer sustainable. We will of course give a month notice prior if this is to happen ^^

-We already are doing what we can to make sure the shops runs smoothly and is accommodating with open preorders and physical samples. The plan is to continue doing what we always do - By working closely with the factories, communicating updates to y’all, and keeping an eye on things to ensure our shop remains consistent and timely.
